Highly recommend. Great view of the water/bridge. Easy check-in. Quite small so 1-2 people max. Otherwise, perfect!

Gina2017-02-02T00:00:00Z

Extremely good location. Walkable to everything. Room very clean and modern amenities.

Imre is a very nice host. We spent one night in his apartment, it is very nice living experience. The apartment is just beside Rhine river and very close to the church. I would like to live here again.

Beautiful maisonette with massive rooftop terrace in registered building from late 1900s. Right in the Northern city center, 850m to cathedral & central station, but in a quiet, small street. Two floors, fully equipped kitchen, hammock, lots of natural light, fast WiFi. 4thfloor!

Maisonette on two open plan floors with large rooftop terrace and pretty dormer windows. Wooden floors, white staircase, beams and kitchen.
Fast wifi.
One bedroom with queensize bed upstairs, convertible couch for two more guests on the lower floor, two extra mattresses for the fifth and sixth guest if needed.
Beautiful registered old building, the flat is on the fourth floor though and as most old buildings in Germany, it doesn't have an elevator, so witness your fitness! The terrace and the view will make up for this though, promised.
Walking distance to the cathedral, the central station (train to the airport: 11 minutes) and Cologne's famous museums; the trade fair is just on the other side of the river.
The area, Eigelsteinviertel, is one of the oldest parts of Cologne, used for glassworks by the romans more than 2000 years ago.

Lively, colorful, central area.
Not Starbucks'ed yet as a lot of the rest of Cologne, therefore attracting lots of people working in culture as well as young artists and musicians.
Comparably busy, entertaining street life, lots of cafes with tables outside, it feels like a new gallery is opening every week. There are secret tiny music venues, specialized stores making model railway equipment or grinding knifes that are more than a century old, and even still some record stores around.
The flat is quiet nevertheless!
Also one of the few spots where Cologne is truly international and where you can eat out later then 10 pm, not at last due to the famous music school being in the area. Old buildings meet new architecture, local and shady meet super-expensive and fancy, churches from different centuries are right next to amazing food shops, brutalist mini parks, local low-key sausage shops as well as great restaurants. If you're from Cologne and like the feeling of a big city, this is the place you'll want to live at (that is, if you can still afford it).
Disclaimer: We've seen someone comment on another listing from the area that the place was "too international" [sic]. If people having different skin colors and dressing according to different cultures or religions bothers you, please refrain from booking, we do not want you as guests and rather don't meet you, ever! The same goes for homophobic travellers - you're not welcome here. Thanks.

An excellent apartment right in the centre of the old town of Cologne, extremely close to most of the main attractions and great pubs and restaurants. The apartment was roomy, comfortable and warm even in the middle of winter. The hosts were excellent - very helpful and informative. They also left coffee and fresh milk for us which was a nice touch. Highly recommended.

Kerstin was so cheerful and welcome us so nicely. the place was quite near to central station and cafe, bars, everything is near there. Quite nice atmosphere and we had great time there.

Nobukuni2015-02-21T00:00:00Z

I had a wonderful stay at Kerstins place in Cologne. To say it's a great location would be a huge understatement, this listing is in an absolutely fantastic location, with countless restaurants, cafés and pubs nearby. Cologne Cathedral is only a couple minutes walk away, and you are only 30 seconds from the riverwalk. Kerstin is readily available to help in any way at all, check in and check out were a breeze. The apartment itself has everything you might need. It's ground level, and has a great patio to relax on! I would highly recommend the listing, and will certainly stay again.

Cosy apartment in one of the most beautiful little cobblestone streets of the historic center of Cologne. The street is called Lintgasse and is 50 yards away from the "Alter Markt" (historic market square) towards the rhine river. There are beautiful old houses on this street. And in the very center of these houses, that´s where you are going to put your key in and everybody will envy you for living there! Yes you can actually live there - it is not a fassade made for tourist - it is historic! :)
So, the location is fantastic for exploring the historic part of the city. Here are some distances:
***Alter Markt and Heumarkt - 50yds
***Rhine river / promenade / tour-ships - 100yds
***shopping mile - 300yds
***dome/cathedral - 400yds
*** hohenzollern bridge (with the famous locks on it) - 400yds
***main station - 600yds
***exhibition/messe Köln - 1000yds (2 tram stops from Heumarkt)
***Xmas markets - they are all around in footwalk distance!
Heumarkt, Alter Markt, Dom, (just around the corner s.a.) Neumarkt (1 tramstation), Rudolfplatz (2 tramstation), chocolate museum 500 yds towards the south on the rhine river), Stadtgarten (Venloer Str. / Spichernstrasse - 20 min. walking or 2 stops with tram). these are the most important Xmas markets in Cologne.
and now about the flat:
the flat is cosy and modern equiped.
***a small bathroom with a bath-tub
***a big kitchen with a large table, washing-machine, dishwasher, oven/stove, microwave, refrigerator with deep-freeze-compartments, nespresso coffee machine, milkfoamer
***cosy living and sleeping room in one, with a queensize bed (160cm wide), a lounge chair and big TV flatscreen with digital antenna (no cable), wifi internet.
It is also possible to put a second double matress on the ground in livingroom (or kitchen) to sleep an extra 2 persons (like kids).
Ideal for 2 persons though - but 2+2 a little crowded but possible.
from the sleeping/livingroom you are looking down on Lintgasse and across towards some other beautiful old buildings. From the kitchen you are looking down on a lively square with restaurants and beautiful old trees. The windows are double glassed and damp the noise. If you are used to sleep with open windows you might have to cope with some noise - be aware of that! Especially on weekends.
In my apartment you can use everything you find in the fridge and cupboards. Coffee, Nutella, oliveoil, nudles, herbs etc. Just serve yourself. When you arrive you will get some infos from me of where to go and what to see. I will have a city map available for you normally.
how to get there:
***TRAIN: main station cologne. Take tram no. 5 towards Rathaus (one stop). Exit on Alter Markt. At the narrow and lower end of the Alter Markt to the left is Lintgasse.
***PLANE: take S-Bahn (train) to main station cologne and then go on as above. It is much cheaper and almost just as quick as a taxi.
***CAR: The parking situation is not always easy in this area, since Lintgasse is a pedestrian street. You can drop your luggage at the corner of Alter Markt / Lintgasse to bring it to the apartment 50 meters. Take the car to one of the public parking houses, like...
Markmannsgasse/Heumarkt (2,40€ per hour. / 15€ per 24h)
Laurenzplatz 4 (1,70€/17€)
Quatermarkt 5 (2€/20€)
looking forward to your booking!

Olaf was an excellent host. He greeted me and provided written recommendations on what to do and see around the city. The apartment was exactly as described and was great. It was clean, comfortable, and was in a perfect location for me (the visiting tourist!). I would highly recommend this spot and would stay at Olaf's again.

Chris2015-04-20T00:00:00Z

Thank you Ellen for your nice appartment. Perfect location in Cologne. Quiet even with a live area around. See you next year !

Charles2016-09-20T00:00:00Z

What a great experience! Olaf was a delight to deal with - very responsive and friendly. The flat is quiet, attractively decorated and in a very central location for exploring Cologne. No complaints from me!

Dave2016-02-18T00:00:00Z

Olaf pick us up from the train station, and explained the details regards the room, travel tips. We had good experience

We felt immediately comfortable in the apartment, she is beautiful and comfortably furnished, all located very clean and very central. A perfect place to stay when in Cologne. We will be back definitely!

Marco2017-05-01T00:00:00Z

The flat is exactly as pictures show. Large bedroom with a pair of comfy chairs, very comfortable bed (I think 160cm), kitchen with table and chairs, modern setup with everything you need. Bathroom fine, everything clean, a nice sheet telling you of things to do. The area is perfect - lots of bars and restaurants, the river right there, 10m to the train station, 5 to the cathedral (if that), also near Heumarkt U-Bahn. Some people have mentioned noise - the bedroom is over little Lintgasse - there was some noise from teh other side of the apartment, but the windows are good, and if it got bad, you can just close the door. I had no issues at all with noise. Only minor negative was that there is not much storage to unpack into. I would definitely return.

This 15m² room with a big double bed and private balcony offers plenty of space for you and another person. It's super-centrally situated in downtown Cologne at metro "Friesenplatz" above the best Italian restaurant in town! In the apartment there are two other guestrooms and a bathroom. The Cologne Cathedral and Central Station are only 5 minutes away, the trade fair only 10 minutes. The subway, train station, supermarkets, restaurants, bars clubs and shopping areas are right outside the door!

In the bathroom, a bathtub invites you to relax but if you are short on time a nice warm shower awaits you. A hair dryer is at your disposal, so bringing one is not necessary. We do provide towels. Also linens are brought up fresh for you. High-Speed internet is available throughout the apartment for you as well.

A supermarket is located on the corner and open until midnight. Just below the apartment, in the same building, you can find the Montanara, one of the best Italian restaurants in Cologne! You'll find many more restaurants from fast food to exquisite, shops and bars in the immediate area. For partying it is only a 2-minute walk across Friesenplatz where bars are lined up one after another. Dance clubs can also be found, for example the legendary "Nachtflug" is only a few blocks away. The nearby street Ehrenstraße with its awesome boutiques offer a wonderful shopping experience (3 minutes walk). Germany's largest and most visited shopping street Schildergasse can be reached by only 2 metro stops (10 minutes).

Very close to the city centre, located in an amazing spot of the city. The flat meets the basic standards of cleanness and tidiness. Bastian is attentive to his phone and the check in process is simply straight forward. I would highly recommend this place if you're traveling on budget.

Due to the very central position (bars and restaurants in direct neighourhood), it is unfortunately not always quiet at night, there is no closing hour in the oldtown.
There are bars in the close neighbourhood that are open all night.
For this reason, I recommend that travelers who are sensitive in this regard, to rent an accommodation just outside the center!

The Cologne Fair and Lanxess-Arena are only 5 minutes (two tram stops) from the Heumarkt and your accommodation.
The apartment is the perfect starting point to walk to the historical Old Town (Altstadt) with its typical famous Brewery Pubs, and numerous restaurants, cafés, museums, Musical Dome, Cologne Philharmonic orchestra, or the Rheine promenade, river cruises, shopping.

Nice apartment in the heart of old town. In walking distance to railway station as well as to the exhibition center. Everything was OK, thank you!

Cornelia was an excellent host. Her place, while small, was perfect for my girlfriend and I, and was very clean. It's also very centrally located in the city, so it was easy to walk anywhere you would want to go. Cornelia was very easy to communicate with and made our stay extremely comfortable.

Whyever you come to Cologne, my place is located ideally in the center of the city: great for sightseeing, shopping, getting to the tradefare.

The apartment was very clean and tidy. There was everything you needed and we were also allowed to share everything. The hostess was very friendly and helpful. We felt so welcomed! Also, the price-performance ratio I loved. A perfect location and a very nice apartment !! :)

A very spacious room on a very central location. Uwe is punctual, friendly and flexible. It was altogether a very good choice!

Yuri2015-12-31T00:00:00Z

Uwe was kind to take us into his clean apartment. It is 4 or 5 narrow flights of stairs to the top, which was a bit challenging for my mom, but fine for a young lad. Simple room and comes with a nice bathroom. Didn't see Uwe after we had checked in. Very nice location with restaurants and cafes. Uwe recommended two great ones that we tried and enjoyed.
